Is the Nasdaq 100 losing steam after reaching marginal new highs?
Or does it have one last move “trading” higher before a stronger pullback?
Today’s chart is a “daily” chart of the Nasdaq 100. It highlights my view that the market may be nearing an intermediate high, perhaps a bit higher. In any event, I’ll be taking caution as we move into the May timeframe.

$QQQ Nasdaq 100 ETF “daily” Chart
Since bottoming in early March, the Nasdaq 100 ETF (QQQ) has rallied in what appears to be 5 waves, with the 5th wave at a critical impassion. Time to head higher and squeeze shorts one more time… or immediate move lower. Watch this area right here. (and note I am an amateur with Elliott wave).
Also note that the 1.236 Fibonacci extension is at $347 and the 1.618 is at $363. Again, this is only if the Nasdaq breaks out and extends wave 5.
